Bruehl 9-11
The house Brühl 9-11 was a half-timbered house built around 1525 in Brühl in Gotha .
history
After a historical and dendrochronological study by Thomas Schulze and Udo Hopf, the building was erected in another place in 1525 , namely in front of the Brühler Tor, as a three- story studded building and served, among other things, as a poor kitchen. During the Schmalkaldic War it stood in the way of a new fortification of the city and was moved to its current location and then used as a residential building.
Extensive renovations were carried out in the 18th and early 19th centuries, including a renewal of the facades in the south and the gables in the north, removing the previous projections. In the 20th century, a shop was built in the northern ground floor area. During the GDR era, the house came into the possession of the city of Gotha. There she rented the shop to a butcher, offices to customs and the SPD district association, and until 2009 apartments.
In 2010, the city of Gotha had the building measured true to deformation by the architect Michael Beyer . The original separation of the two parts of the building by a fire wall , medieval cellars with barrel vaults under both buildings, parts of the late Gothic half-timbered structure, and the mostly intact static half-timbered structure from several construction periods were evident. Building No. 11 was accessed via a still intact spiral staircase from the 16th century on the courtyard side . The baroque roof structure with a reclining chair , which was built throughout both buildings , showed that the building had evidently belonged to an owner at that time. There was easily repairable damage in the courtyard area at the transition to the side wing due to defective zinc fillets. Despite the clear indications of this damage and its causes, the city refrained from any repairs, but only covered the street facade with a painted banner.
demolition
In November 2013, Mayor Knut Kreuch presented plans to completely demolish both buildings together with the neighboring buildings at Brühl 13-15 and to rebuild the property. The demolition then took place in May and June 2014.
